Marcel Wave

I've put a couple of new tunes up: they're self-mixed and mastered, and free to download, for those who like it ruff.

👪Dogs at Polling Stations🐶 is a more energetic electro/synth-pop number with a touch of dark humour. 👪American Family Reunion🏡 is a slower song in a more vaporwave-infused style. I took inspiration from the family reunion stories in the 80s TV show Unsolved Mysteries, and the pastoral whimsy of the Sylvanian Families universe. https://marcelwave.bandcamp.com/album/ruff-versions

Ruff Versions, by Marcel Wave 2 track album

Here's a ruff version of my new track, Dogs at Polling Stations, a bedroom recording involving my Yamaha PSR-340 from the 90s, an Alesis Micron and a sprinkling of software synths.

It was inspired by elections in the last few years, and the social media phenomenon of people posting cute photos of their dogs waiting outside the polling station while they voted. It led me to consider how the animal within us might also be at play in the voting process. But in a fun synth-pop way 😊🐶🎶

Dogs at Polling Stations A darkly melodic vocal synth-pop song that considers the whimsical social media phenomenon of dogs at polling stations, and the animal impulses underlying the democratic process.
